A presente dissertação tem como objetivo analisar em que medida os documentos com características testamentárias da Gália merovíngia refletem estratégias de transmissão de bens, ou seja, as ações planejadas pelos testadores para definir o caminho que devem tomar seus bens após sua morte, no reino merovíngio entre os séculos VI e VIII. A transmissão de bens é um ato importante da vida em sociedade. Para estudá-la, são analisados 12 testamentos do período, ou seja, todos os que sobreviveram até os dias de hoje, além da fórmula 17 do livro II do Formulário de Marculfo, que variam tanto no tempo quanto no espaço. A princípio, essa análise nos ajuda a visualizar as semelhanças entre os testamentos laicos e episcopais. Assim, podemos nos aproximar da compreensão dessas práticas legais no período, bem como da organização dos grupos sociais. A análise dessa documentação com o auxílio da historiografia é importante para que também notemos as variações dos testamentos ao longo do tempo e do espaço e como eles auxiliavam no cumprimento das últimas vontades dos aristocratas. / This dissertation aims to analyze how testamentary documents from Merovingian Gaul reflect strategies for transferring goods in the Merovingian kingdom from sixth to eighth centuries. These strategies are actions planned by testers to define what will happen to their goods after their death. The transfer of assets is an important practice of social life. To study it, 12 wills from the period are analyzed, all those which survived to the present day, plus the formula 17, book II from the Formulary of Marculf. All these testaments vary both in time and in space. At first, this analysis can help us visualize the similarities between the secular and the episcopal type of testaments. Therefore, we can understand these legal practices in the period as well as the organization of the groups. The analysis of this documentation and the aid of historiography are important to note the variations of the wills over time and space and understand how they helped the fulfillment of the aristocratic last wills.

Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit einem Aspekt des alttestamentlichen Gottesbildes und verfolgt die Traditionslinie der Rede von Gott als einem Erzieher sowohl des Volkskollektivs Israel als auch einzelner Menschen in den Schriften des AT. Ein breit angelegtes Einleitungskapitel zum Thema "Kindheit und Erziehung im Alten Testament" erhellt den zeithistorischen Kontext, in dem die theologische Rede von Gott als Erzieher entstanden ist. Der exegetische Hauptteil konzentriert sich auf die Untersuchung des hebräischen Begriffspaars jsr/musar (vergleiche dazu in der griechischen Übersetzung - Septuaginta - das Begriffspaar paideuo/paideia) und arbeitet die Entwicklungslinie von der Prophetie über den Pentateuch bis in späte Schriften des AT heraus. Insgesamt zeigt sich, dass die göttliche Erziehungsstrategie vor allem strenge Züge hat, dass - eingebettet in den Kontext einer antiken "Prügelpädagogik" - auch der erzieherisch tätige Gott des AT ein vorwiegend strafender Gott ist, der mittels "Züchtigung" das Wohl der Menschen will. Die Frage, inwieweit diese Rede von einem strengen Erzieher-Gott in heutiger Zeit noch nachvollziehbar und tragfähig erscheint, wird in der Schlussbewertung knapp behandelt.

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the lives of men and women living in London and Bury St. Edmunds in the late fourteenth - early fifteenth centuries. Sources studied include the administrative and legal records of the City of London and of the Abbot and Convent of St. Edmund's abbey; legislation and court records of royal government and the wills and testaments of Londoners and Bury St. Edmunds' inhabitants. Considerable research on a wide range of topics on London, but far less work on Bury St. Edmunds, has already been undertaken; however, this thesis is the first systematic comparative study of these two towns. The introduction discusses the historiography and purpose of the thesis; the methodology used, and the shortcomings of using medieval wills and the probate process. Chapter One discusses the testamentary jurisdiction in both towns; who was involved in the will making process, and the role that clerics played as both executors and scribes and how the church courts operated. Chapter Two focuses on testators' preparations for the afterlife, their choices concerning burial location, funeral arrangements and the provisions made for prayers for their souls. Chapter Three examines in detail their pious and charitable bequests and investigates what ‘good works' testators chose to support apart from ‘forgotten tithes'. The family and household relationships, including servants and apprentices, are examined in Chapter Four, exploring the differences in bequests made depending on the testators' marital status, together with evidence for close friendships and social networks. Chapter Five discusses the ownership and types of books referred to in wills and the inter-relationship between the donors and the recipients. Testators' literacy and the provision for education are also investigated.

This diploma thesis, entitled "Testamentary Practice of Prague Jews Based on Analysis of the Books of Testaments from 1681-1850," deals with the Jewish books of testaments which arose from the office of the King's Prague Old Town during the years 1681 and 1850 and nowadays are deposited in Prague City Archives. The text relates to conclusions presented by previous bachelor thesis and its main aim is the analysis of Jewish last wills from years 1773- 1850 from various points of views - for instance typology of records, testators, language, contents and other. Also analysis of chosen records are attached to the practical section of the work - last wills and related writings of Abraham Offner, Philipp Eidlitz and Löwi Gisternitz are introduced.

Keywords: Jews, Prague, early modern period, manuscripts, testaments, testator, last wills, Abraham Offner, Philipp Eidlitz, Löwi Gisternitz

The Development of Relations to Education in the 17th Century in the Context of Burgher Testaments (the Example of New Prague Town) Abstract Early modern testaments represent a unique source of information about many areas of life at a given historical period. They are frequently used in various areas of historical research, including Czech historiography and its new cultural history. Although the cultural history covers many topics, surprisingly, the field of education has been somewhat forgotten. The testaments, which unite the official information and personal testimonies, provide a unique chance to see the attitude of the society towards education in a historical context of a certain era. The testaments might become important especially when researching those periods of the development of scholarly systems and education that have been overlooked by historians, e.g. the development of town schools; respectively, the development of urban education in the period after the Battle of White Mountain (1620). The limited interest of historians has been caused mainly by the lack of information sources that could explain the changes in the organization of the newly formed confessional educational system after the Battle of White Mountain. These changes launched the process of recatholization of the Czech lands...
